User Manual for NRSW version 4.4
Attention:
You can have concurrent WWAN links which share a common recource like one WWAN
module using SIM cards of different providers. In that case it would not be possible to
find out if the link with the higher priority is available without putting down the low priority
link. Therefor such a link will behave like a switchover even if configured as permanent.
For mobile links, it is further possible to pass through the WAN address towards a local host (also called
Drop-In or IP Pass-through). In particular, the first DHCP client will receive the public IP address. More
or less, the system acts like a modem in such case which can be helpful in case of firewall issues. Once
established, the Web Manager can be reached over port 8080 using the WAN address but still over
the LAN1 interface using port 80.

Bridging interface
NetModule routers provide a feature called IP pass-through (aka Drop-In mode). If enabled, the WAN
address will be be passed-through to the first DHCP client of the specified LAN interface. As Ethernet-
based communication requires additional addresses, we pick an appropriate subnet to talk to the LAN
host. In case this overlaps with other addresses of your WAN network, you may optionally specify the
network given by your provider to avoid any address conflicts.
